Right, I saw that, I just don't understand why.

If you don't mind memory leaks after exceptions, remove the #define ATEXIT_DESTROY at the beginning of interpreter.c, until we have a config test for on_exit. atexit is not an alternative, because we might have multiple interpreters to clean up like in t/op/interp_2.
For now, I think I'd rather leak, as it is definitely killing the tinderbox.
